The EV SSL certificate, meaning Extended Validation, is specifically created for websites that need to maintain the highest level of security and user trust. Unlike regular DV or OV options, this type of certificate requires detailed verification of company documents and provides the highest level of trust as a result. For banks, payment services, insurance companies and large online stores, this certificate has become a practical necessity.
What makes EV SSL different
The main difference from other certificate types is that obtaining an EV SSL requires submitting a large number of company documents. The certificate authority separately verifies the registration of the legal entity, tax office data, physical address and phone number. In addition, a direct phone conversation is conducted with the company representative. This process can take from 5 to 10 business days, which is why it is not cheap.
How it appears in the browser
Previously, on sites with EV certificates the address bar was displayed in green and the full company name was visible. Modern browsers have abandoned this visual indicator, but to view certificate data it is enough to click on the lock icon. There you can see the official company name, country and region. This confirms to the user that the site belongs to a real legal entity.
Which sites require it
For online banking services, internet banking platforms, payment systems and large online stores that accept credit card data in large volumes, the EV certificate is considered the practical standard. Insurance companies, brokerage services and important government organization portals also often use this type of certificate. When a user enters large amounts of money or personal information, they need to know that the site is managed by a recognized company.
What is needed to obtain an EV certificate
First, the company must be registered as a legal entity for at least 3 years. There are cases where EV certificates are not issued to newly established firms. Second, a tax office certificate, registration number and documents confirming physical address are required. Third, the company must pass verification through official email and phone. On Sayt.uz this process is fully supported.
